I'm going to be at the Leeds Community News Hub at Trinity University College in Horsforth from about noon today.

The idea of the hub is a simple one – to provide a physical space where people from all walks of life can do journalism together. Are there any stories you'd like to work on or local issues to investigate? We recently looked at the figures surrounding Leeds library attendances. Please feel free to add suggestions via the comments below or drop in today.
